Help Your Child Achieve
Success at school begins at home. You are the first and most important teacher your child will ever have. As a parent,
you can help stimulate your child's enthusiasm for learning.
Help your young
child get off on the right foot:
· Children who get plenty of sleep are more ready to learn. Ten to 12 hours is recommended for four to six-year-olds.
· A well-balanced
diet, including breakfast, is important to learning.
· Children should dress appropriately for different kinds of weather.
· Help your child look forward to school.
· Talk with your child about school activities and routines. Become familiar with school rules and discuss them with your child. Your attitude and actions will help determine how your child feels about school.
